WAsHISGroS, Feb. ia good deal Of
interest is manifested here regarding the
interpretations to be put on the new in
ter-state commerce law. Word comes
that some of the railroad companies are
already suspending the free passes and
preparing in other ways 10 make marked
changes in their management. There are
a good many points on which there are
dissgreements as to the scope of the law,
and it is probable that the fret
thing that will be done will be to
raise a test case in the courts SO as to
bring about the constitutionality of the
bill. The greatest diversity Of opinion
prevails among railroad men and lawyers

An Old Practice Revived.

The Republicans and their Independent
Democratic allies in Baltimore city are re-
sorting to questionable practices, indeed, in
their campaign to overthrow the Democrat
ic party. Messrs. NailI and Wilson, two
prominent Republicans, who lately held fed
eral positions, and the former of whom was
recently chairman of the Republican State
Committee, unblushingly relate how they lis
tened at the door of Hon. Stevenson Archer's
private room, at Barnum's Hotel, Baltimore,
and report an alleged conversation between q
number ofgentlemen gathered there. Eaves.
droppers seldom hear any good of themselves
and spies are objects of detestation the world
over. In this case Messrs. Naill and Wilson
have exposed themselves to public scorn and
contempt, and the term "Knights of the Key
hole" will adhere to them as long as they live.
Their action recalls the days of the civil war,
when under Republican regime the private
conversations of friends were listened to by
informers, and being repeated in distorted
form to iyrannical provost marshals, were
made the basis of an arrest for disloyalty
days when Ben Butler threatened to intro
duce detective into the household of every
Southern sympathizer in Baltimore, to listen
to and report all his words and actions and
secure his condgn punishment. The leopard
can not change his spots. The men who lis
ten at the key-holes now are the same who
had their neighboIs arrested and their horses
seized by lawless soldiers during the war.

The People Aroused .

The people of Narylend appear to be
thoroughly aroused by the gross ISLANDERS
upon the fair fame of our good old State and
the city Of Baltimore, which are spread
broadcast through the North by the Repub-
licans and so-called Reformers, who would
have all men outside of Maryland believe
that the entire State is under the control of
an organized band of thieves and cut-lhroats,
the object of these ISLANDERS being to revolu-
tionize Maryland and bring it under Repub.
lican control, in order that they may turn the
State over to the Republicans at the Pres
idetial election next year. What this means
may be imagined from the enthusiastic at
terance of one of these pseudo reformers, who
declared that he wanted to see repeated in
Maryland the good old days of Governor
Hicks and Henry Winter Davis-days every
man of mature age will remember, when Ro-
man Catholics and foreign-born citizens were
prescribed when Democrats were prodded
with avis by plug Uglies" and BLOOD
Tubs" and prevented from voting, and later in
our history, when armed soldiers at the COM
mand of Republican leaders, stood around the
polls, even here in Hartford, and with bay
onets prevented Democrats from voting. Is
this the kind of reform we are to have by
restoring the Republicans to power2

Mr.. John F. Preston, of Baltimore city,
formerly of Hartford county, has written an
open letter to the chairman of the Democrat
ic State Central Committee, in which lie
gives the reasons why he, as a Reform Dem
ocrat, will support the regular Democratic
ticket in November. He recalls the fact that
when in 1888, Gov. Hamilton, John Stewart,
James Hodges, himself and others opened
head quarters in Baltimore city and invited all
Democrats 10 aid in securing better manage
ment in the Democratic primaries, the gen.
tleman who are now so actively engaged in
supporting the Republican ticket and cen.
surfing the Democrats were conspicuous by
their absence. Mr.. Preston concludes that it
is not pure political methods Mr.. Cowen and
his associates are pining for, but desire to
promote their own individual aggrandize-
ment. Mr.. Preston adds, truly that the is
sue in this contest is shall the Republicans
or shall the Democrats rule Maryland? and
urges all Reform Democrats ito do their duty
as Democrats, and by all honorable means
prevent the State of Maryland from reverting
to Republican misrule and corruption, COM
pared to which Democratic errors and mis-
management are but of trfling importance
and significance"
